BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the InventionThe present invention relates to an optical image capturing module, more particularly to an optical image capturing module which provides a fixed-focus lens assembly and an auto-focus lens assembly, and has a multi-lens frame manufactured integrally.
2. Description of the Related ArtWith respect to the assembly of video-recording devices at present, many problems have been identified but not solved yet, especially the video-recording devices with multiple lenses. Due to the use of multiple lenses, there is a dramatic impact on image quality if an optical axis cannot be accurately aimed at a CMOS active pixel sensor for calibration in the process of assembling and manufacturing image quality.
In addition, even though video-recording devices provide an auto-focus function that can be used when the lens is in motion, the assembling and packaging quality of all components would be difficult to manage owing to the complicated composition of the components of the video recording devices.
Moreover, to meet higher photographic requirements, video-recording devices need to have more lenses, four at the least. Therefore, how to include at least four lenses and still have a fine imaging quality is a critical issue that needs to be addressed. Therefore, there is a need for an optical image capturing module to solve the problem as mentioned above.

The present invention provides an optical image capturing module. Wherein, an inflection point may be disposed on the object side surface or the image side surface of the six lens, which may effectively adjust the angle at which each field of view is incident on the sixth lens and make correction on the optical distortion and the TV distortion. In addition, the surface of the sixth lens may be equipped with a greater light path regulating ability, thus enhancing the image quality.
The arc length of any surface of a single lens within the maximum effective half diameter affects the surface's ability to correct the aberration and the optical path differences between each of the fields of view. The longer the arc length is, the better the ability to correct the aberration will be. However, difficulties may be found in the manufacturing process. Therefore, it is necessary to control the arc length of any surface of a single lens within the maximum effective half diameter, especially the ratio (ARS/TP) between the arc length (ARS) of the surface within the maximum effective half diameter and the thickness (TP) of the lens to which the surface belongs on the optical axis. For instance, ARS11 denotes the arc length of the maximum effective half diameter of the object side surface of the first lens. TP1 denotes the thickness of the first lens on the optical axis. The ratio between the two is ARS11/TP1. ARS12 denotes the arc length of the maximum effective half diameter of the image side surface of the first lens. The ratio between ARS12 and TP1 is ARS12/TP1. ARS21 denotes the arc length of the maximum effective half diameter of the object side surface of the second lens. TP2 denotes the thickness of the second lens on the optical axis. The ratio between the two is ARS21/TP2. ARS22 denotes the arc length of the maximum effective half diameter of the image side surface of the second lens. The ratio between ARS22 and TP2 is ARS12/TP2. The ratio between the arc length of the maximum effective half diameter of any surface of the rest lenses in the optical image capturing module and the thickness (TP) of the lens to which the surface belongs on the optical axis may be deducted on this basis. In addition, the optical image capturing module further satisfies the following conditions:

NLTA is the lateral aberration of the longest operation wavelength of visible light of a negative tangential ray fan aberration of the optical image capturing module passing through a margin of an entrance pupil and incident at the image plane by 0.7 HOI.

MTFQ7 denotes the modulation conversion transferring rate of visible light on the imaging surface by 0.7HOI at a spatial frequency of 110 cycles/mm. In addition, the optical image capturing module further satisfies the following conditions: MTFQ0≥0.2; MTFQ3≥0.01; and MTFQ7≥0.01.
The arc length of any surface of a single lens within the height of half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) particularly affects the surface's ability to correct the aberration and the optical path differences between each of the fields of view at the shared area. The longer the arc length is, the better the ability to correct the aberration will be. However, difficulties may be found in the manufacturing process. Therefore, it is necessary to control the arc length of any surface of a single lens within the height of half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP), especially the ratio (ARE/TP) between the arc length (ARE) of the surface within the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) and the thickness (TP) of the lens to which the surface belongs on the optical axis. For instance, ARE11 denotes the arc length of the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) of the object side surface of the first lens. TP1 denotes the thickness of the first lens on the optical axis. The ratio between the two is ARE11/TP1. ARE12 denotes the arc length of the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) of the image side surface of the first lens. The ratio between ARE12 and TP1 is ARE12/TP1. ARE21 denotes the arc length of the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) of the object side surface of the second lens. TP2 denotes the thickness of the second lens on the optical axis. The ratio between the two is ARE21/TP2. ARE22 denotes the arc length of the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) of the image side surface of the second lens. The ratio between ARE22 and TP2 is ARE22/TP2. The ratio between the arc length of the height of the half the entrance pupil diameter (HEP) of any surface of the rest lenses in the optical image capturing module and the thickness (TP) of the lens to which the surface belongs on the optical axis may be deducted on this basis.

In the optical image capturing module provided by the present disclosure, the material of the lens may be made of glass or plastic. Using plastic as the material for producing the lens may effectively reduce the cost of manufacturing. In addition, using glass as the material for producing the lens may control the heat effect and increase the designed space configured by the refractive power of the optical image capturing module. Moreover, the object side surface and the image side surface from the first lens 2411 to the sixth lens 2471 may be aspheric, which may obtain more control variables. Apart from eliminating the aberration, the number of lenses used may be reduced compared with that of traditional lenses used made by glass. Thus, the total height of the optical image capturing module may be reduced effectively.
Furthermore, in the optical image capturing module 10 provided by the present disclosure, when the surface of the lens is a convex surface, the surface of the lens adjacent to the optical axis is convex in principle. When the surface of the lens is a concave surface, the surface of the lens adjacent to the optical axis is concave in principle.
The optical image capturing module 10 in the present disclosure may be applied to a moving auto-focus optical image capturing system depending on requirements. With the features of a fine aberration correction and a high imaging quality, this module may widely be applied to various fields.
In the optical image capturing module in the present application, at least one of the first lens 2411, the second lens 2421, the third lens 2431, the fourth lens 2441, the fifth lens 2451, and sixth lens 2461 may further be designed as a light filtration element with a wavelength of less than 500 nm depending on requirements. The light filtration element may be realized by coating at least one surface of the specific lens with the filter function, or may be realized by the lens itself having the material capable of filtering short wavelength.
The image plane of the optical image capturing module 10 in the present application may be a plane or a curved surface depending requirements. When the image plane is a curved surface such as a spherical surface with a curvature radius, the incident angle necessary for focusing light on the image plane may be reduced. Hence, it not only contributes to shortening the length (TTL) of the optical image capturing module, but also promotes the relative illuminance.
